The Official Election Prediction thread
We hear pundits prats on and on, what do you think is going to happen in less than two weeks. This isnt a popular vote prediction, but in the Electoral College. Be as detailed as you want.

Kerry wins by the skin of his teeth or Bush blows him out...
The Media (which includes me) unfortunately has been telling everyone how to think and what the most important issues are. People have a way of deciding for themselves once they close those curtains.
This will be a referendum on what is more important to Americans.
(IMO)
Bush will win if Iraq and the war on terror is number one abovel all else.
Kerry will win if the lack of Jobs, the Economy and the Mis-Management of Iraq/the war on terror are more important.

you wouldnt beleive the fun that a draw begins. There would be a chance we would end up with Bush-Edwards. I'm not joking.
I think it will be Kerry 284-254.
Kerry wins(out of the Battleground states): Ohio, Penn., New Hampshire, Oregon, New Mexico, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa and the Majority of Maine's.

I have to go with Kerry and a slim victory. I don't see any possible way Bush made more friends than opponets in the past 4 years.

The popular vote will be very close again, but one of them will win with a total close to 300.

You right AK a draw could bring us a Bush/Edwards Presidency/Vice-Presidency. How would that play out?

Dick Cheney would still be Bush's puppetmaster, he just wouldn't have his own office anymore. And it would be 4 years of attending state funerals for Edwards.

It would go to the House and the Senate. The House determines the President by Vote and the Senate decides the VP. I think both are by 2/3 votes(which means the GOP will have to work things out with the Dems--which increases the likelyhood of either Kerry or Edwards winning one of the positions). A whole lot of dealmaking would be going on then. We could end up with Kerry/Cheney.

Eight years ago I ran an office pool on the election. Everyone had to predict the winner of each state. If you got the state correct, you added that state's Electoral Votes to your total. The person with the highest total won.
I'd like to offer that up here, but I don't think Yahoo facilitates that. So if anyone has any suggestions on how to run such a thing, I'd certainly play along.

I kno I'm not supposed to be posting here (I don't want to anyways) but I was wondering if there could/would be an "Official Presedential Election Thread." Like lock the thread and just have a poll.

Edwards would constantly be sneaking up on Bush from behind and shouting BOO! in his ear.
